I'm looking to eventually upgrade my home network to all gigabit so
I'm going to start by purchasing a few NICs for some old servers I
just received. I know there are quite a few supported by FreeBSD6
which I found (

I'm wondering if there is any real benefit in buying a $40 or $50 NIC
like the Netgear GA311 or just get a $20 NIC like the D-Link
DFE-530TX+. The use will probably be a firewall, proxy, file server,
and DVR.

Sorry, poor example with the D-Link. Actually the Trendnet TEG-PCITXR or
the Encore ENLGA-1320 (if they are supported)
